What works in Brunei

Brunei has invested in digital skills and entrepreneurship development across multiple sectors. The Academy for Women Entrepreneurs (AWE) Brunei has graduated 66 women since 2021, with top graduates receiving up to US$3,000 in seed funding, while the Go Digital ASEAN — Brunei Darussalam programme reported exceeding its 2,500-person training target for underemployed youth, marginalised communities and persons with disabilities across all four districts. On health technology, BruHealth 5.0 has achieved over 500,000 app downloads with 63% of users logging in weekly, though the evidence does not independently verify clinical outcomes or equity of access to the AI-driven health recommendations.
